Description of the products
The SATELLINE-M3-R4 is a UHF radio receiver module, which receives data from UHF
transmissions made by SATELLINE-EASy family and similar transmitters. The SATELLINE-M3-TR3
and
–
TR4 are UHF radio transceiver modules, that transmits and receives data from UHF
transmissions made by SATELLINE-EASy family and similar transmitters.
The modules are designed to be as compact and power efficient as possible. It has been
developed to be especially suitable for integration into battery powered and space constrained
host applications benefiting from UHF communications.
The transceiver module transmits and receives data via the Air interface (Ant. Connector, RF),
